GeForce GTX 660 already available at Newegg

There's something awfully frustrating about soft launches—when products get announced but don't become available until a few days, weeks, or months later. Luckily, that's not the case with Nvidia's new GeForce GTX 660. We're already seeing a healthy number of cards listed and in stock at Newegg, several of which bear the suggested $229.99 price tag.

The $229.99 EVGA model with the 1020MHz base clock might offer the most performance for the money right now. However, it seems to come with the standard Nvidia cooler. Folks seeking a quieter, more compact solution should probably consider the stock-clocked Zotac card, which we featured in our review and found to be very competent—and quiet, to boot. It, too, is priced at $229.99.
